Reminders:

Texted appointment reminders 48-hrs prior to your appointment are a COURTESY.

If you schedule an appointment it is up to you, as an adult or the guardian/care-taker

of the person who is being seen, to keep the appointment.

​

ALL No-Shows/No-Calls will automatically be charged the full appointment fee.

​​

If you schedule, it is up to you to notify us if you cannot keep the appointment

or you will be assessed a fee and our system will not allow us to reschedule you.

​

​​Unlike Physicians, Chiropractors, P.T.s, O.T.s, etc, we schedule a *full hour* just for you.

If a client does not keep their appointment, or late-cancels, that is lost income.

We are paid *by appointment* not at an hourly rate.
